High End CDP's that play CD-R & CD-RW's?


I'm in the market for a new (to me, but probably used) CD player in the $2K range (give or take) that will also play CD's that are made on a CD recorder such as a Marantz, HHB, Tascam, etc. I'm very interested in a Meridian 508.24, but also would consider BAT, ARC, Cary 303-200, possibly the Electrocompanient, or Muse etc.

Any advice would be appreciated!

Count this as another vote for the Sony XA777ES, really a great-sounding CD player that also plays CDRs and CD-RWs. Consider the SACD capability a bonus. BTW, I've tried at least l0 brands of CDRs and never had a problem with either the Sony or a predecessor Pioneer DV 4l4 (modded). Even the el-cheapos you could see through, Just lucky I guess.
